Vintage Black Map Background

Scanned section of an old map of the Comstock Lode and Washoe Mining Claims. The Comstock Lode, discovered in the late 1850s in the area that is now Virginia City, Nevada, produced prodigious quantities of silver and gold. This image can be used as a simple background or as texture overlay in Photoshop. By placing the image on it's own layer and adjusting the blend modes and opacity you can achieve some interesting effects.
